Well yeah, but that already happened. The world is already a bomb-gutted piece of crap. And he appears to be the one most capable of building something new. Now we have to figure out what's his deal with the humies.

Why? Because Vresch is one of the only people left with the power to fix everything. He may be a bastard demon from who knows where, but he has the power to make everything better then the way it was. And the fact that he may have feelings for Coralina will probably help us with this endeavor. So like it or not, our best option right now is to form some sort of alliance with him. And even if we can't then we can always resort to plan B.

Well he is a gentleman, and it have been proven we love suave motherfuckers. And he seems pretty mild for a demon, most would have more of a kill everything/rape/whatever. We're cool with him.

3. Enslaving tons of humans.
4. I assure you he doesn't just use those giant robots for carrying people around.
5. He's a bit of an eye gouger

And he's the only one building anything because he has ALL OF THE POWER. What, are humans gonna try building a society, only to have the giant robots crash it and kidnap anyone? Humans have NO CHOICE but to submit.

Well, if he wants more power, helping humanity progress and spread technology through the universe would be a good plan. If we can make him a nice overlord instead of an asshole overlord we might end up with a better world than we had before.

Well, judging from the little knowledge we currently have, I'd say without him this world would be MAD MAX all over again. We have to figure out what he does with all the humans he brings to the city, before we can decide on a long-term course of action.

Sure.

What things? You have to understand, we know ONLY what you tell us, and thus far you've said only that he's "nice, for a demon", polite, and only interested in ruling the world. Oh, and he killed that pussy Jake (how'd that happen, btw?). While bad, it doesn't sound like he was anything near as big an asshat as the guys who, say, nuked everything.

So did you leave something out of the description here? Lay out his atrocities for us to judge.

Make him a nice overlord? He's a demon! Even if he promises to do it, hello, he can LIE!

Most of the suggestions here assume we're dealing with a powerful human. We're not. It's a demon. Furthermore a demon who's been given dominion over the earth. I wouldn't trust any agreement we make with him at all. WHY would he even consider making the world easier for humans if he doesn't have to?

>You don't know if everyone's a 'slave'. It could be anything from oppressive authotarianism to a technological utopia to something straight out of 'Brave New World'.

>Like detonate nuclear weapons in major population centers? Oh wait. Sounds like the governments that were around at the time weren't exactly the nicest guys either. And for all you know, all the humans he's dragging back to Neotis are living in the lap of luxury served by machines. Obviously, you have lived through some terrible shit, but it's best that we approach this meeting with as few preconceptions as possible.

Hide that book somewhere before you come to him.
He might just be after that.
Once he gets rid of the book and you, no one could banish him without finding another, and I assume those are quite rare.

Even if it means that you could use his liking for you? Use it not to undo the damage, that can't be done, but to at least start to rebuild? Every man listens to his woman, even demons. You could slowly change his policies. You could slowly free the slaves, or at least make their lot in life a bit better. Everyone would hate you for being his, at first, but things would change when they saw what you were doing for him.

Is your dignity, your happiness, or your life too much to give for so many other people?

I'm always gonna be against trusting this guy or making any sort of a deal with him. Isn't a deal with a demon how 9/10 bad ending start?

The ends never justify the means. If he's made world order out of enslaving the entirety of the human race, how can that ever be something we accept? Tyranny in a sparkling white dome is still tyranny.

I'm not saying you have to jump right into his arms, girl. In fact, that's probably the worst thing you can do. Just test the waters. See if he thinks that way. If he does... you have another bargaining chip, and God knows you need as much on your side of the table as you can get.

3. Perhaps, but who's to say that the rest of us wouldn't, given the opportunity. And even so, we don't actually know if the people are truly enslaved.
4. Yes, he also used it to crush a regime which attacked him and killed millions of its own people.
5. That's a bit of a low blow, but I'll concede the point.

>Tyranny in a sparkling white dome is still tyranny.
Perhaps, but who is to say that the tyranny of humans is better? I can tell you there was not a whole lot of freedom before he came either.

We don't know that at all. Regardless of humans would do a better job, there's still the fact that he's enslaving the world. You can't just say "It's ok because some humans would have done it too." Humans don't have supernatural control over all electronics to aid their conquest.

No, they just have natural control over it. And I didn't say it was good, but why try to change to a situation which is not necessarily better? If we're going to change anything, we need to be sure before-hand that it won't just fuck up the world even worse.

Ey Kiddo, you came to us for help. Don't take it out on us if the advice we give isn't the advice you wanted.
The situation here is clearly asymmetrical. If we gave you advice that would lead to a direct confrontation with Vresch, you'd get killed. Simple as that. So we're going to do a little information gathering first, find out if we can do something underhanded instead.

Here's some food for though.

Going by that guard's directives, you are authorized to order a guard to fire upon another guard, who will in-turn have to fire back as per Directive 004. Going by this theory, you can command ever guardbot to kill other guardbots or even themselves as per Directive 005.

If this is not true and there are other directives preventing this, then this particular guardbot has disobeyed Directive 005. That would mean that these guardbots are capable of acting outside their programming, and could be swayed to serve you instead.

It doesn't matter. Vresch just made these robots, out of his otherworldly powers and whatever was lying around. What difference do loopholes make when the reason there's no DIRECTIVE 000: OBEY. VRESCH. is that he doesn't need one to control them?
If he ever sees you as a serious threat, he'll make some that don't have those nice directives and send them after you.
That said, go ahead and mindfuck this guardbot however you can. You're stuck playing Vresch's game, you may as well impress him at it.
